Blast in Nigeria's Gombe City Kills 15

An explosion at a bus station in Nigeria has killed at least 15 people. Local officials say the bomb wounded another 21 people at the bus station in Gombe city.   A car bomb killed 10 people in late October at a bus stop in Gombe. No one has claimed responsibility, but the attack Monday took place in northeastern Nigeria, where the Islamic extremist group Boko Haram has repeatedly staged attacks on civilians in its efforts to carve out an Islamic state.
